About Puanani H.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment but ensure pets are taken for leashed potty breaks as needed (2-4 hours) Longer walks are taken in the morning, early afternoon and evening in different settings (neighborhood, parks, and trails). With summer temps arriving, I ensure walks are taken in shaded areas, avoid times of extreme heat to prevent paw burn, and carry extra water. I follow the pups lead and never push walks if they are showing any sign of heat intolerance, discomfort, anxiety, or other concerns. Leash safety is another big priority, and I assume any dog we see may be reactive. This means we will wait for other dogs to pass us or cross the street to avoid close encounters. When it comes to boarding, I only book one family at a time. I want to guarantee safety and appropriate care.

A typical day
I love dog led walks around different parks and trails, allowing the pup to walk at their own pace, and smell all the things in nature. I also provide various enrichment activities such as puzzles, snuffle mats, mini training sessions to keep their skills sharp, and doing pup friendly crafts!

Reviews

Nani is a great cat sitter! She helped us out in a pinch ahead of a holiday and was very professional and responsive. She took good care of our cat while we were gone. Would highly recommend!

Nani was very professional and I could tell she took really good care of my Great Dane. She communicated often, sending pictures/updates and really just went above and beyond. I highly recommend her.
Puanani H. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.

Nani did a wonderful job caring for our pets, going above and beyond to make sure they were cared for. They returned home so well loved, and we are thankful for the support she provided while we were away and out-of-state.
